I'll take it.
That said, it didn't quite go according to plan. A few days ago I said that a 2:2 fasting schedule (instead of 36:12) would make me more likely to have shed any transient water weight etc. by the end of my fast, and that I didn't think I'd have to extend my fast beyond 60h to see a weight drop by the end of it. But lo and behold, by yesterday morning, after 60h of fasting, I was still heavier than at my previous weigh-in, triggering my rule to add 24h. And now, here I am this morning, at 84h fasted (my longest so far), almost 2 lb down overall since the end of the last fast -- and also since yesterday! And as there's no way that I lost 2 lb of fat (or muscle, for that matter) in one day, it looks like it was mostly transient weight that was still hanging on at 60h.
One thing I do is have plenty of fluids during the day, and then quench my thirst for the last time not too late in the evening before cutting off fluid intake so that my body has a chance to regulate itself over the night before I weigh in. But I guess there are too many other variables, such as when I last had caffeine, what my electrolyte levels are, etc.
Edited to add:
The website just gave me a yellow bar, which is encouraging -- though I'm only now at my starting weight from 4 years ago!
